I guess, but what's really screwed up is all the people who were on the hiring committee telling me what a great job I've done and offering to be my reference, especially the person who I know voted against hiring me for the new job.

On the plus side I emailed my previous boss to ask if I can use him as a reference again and he said he'd dig up a grant if I want to come back for a few months and add a new feature to the website. Not long term or anything, but I said sure. So there is that.

I'm still not sure who if any I'll use as a reference from the job I love. I really can't afford 11 months of job hunting only to find out that someone who said they would be a great reference is bad talking me to potential employers (and yes this happened to Orc, he had no idea until one of the guys who ended up hiring him told him that was happening).

I really need to move out of university zone, but I like it here... just not a lot of options for a variety of jobs.

I understand all too well.
My reasoning for asking for a reference letter is that if they are going to stab you in the back later then they would have to justify the descepancy,which would probably call their credibility into question.
Besides a potential employer might be more impressed if the reference supplier is willing to take the time to sing your praises in writing.
